How You Might Share Your Personal Information with Third Parties

When using our Services, you may choose to use or access services offered by third parties, such as websites, applications, retailers, or the networks of other carriers (such as when you are roaming). In some cases, our Services may have links to websites operated by third parties or plugins for social media services, such as the Facebook Like button. When you interact with third-party services, you may be providing your Personal Information to those third parties or they may be automatically collecting your Personal Information, such as your IP address or browsing activity. Those services operate independently of our Services, and your Personal Information will be governed by their privacy policies, not this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services that you use to better understand their privacy practices.

CPNI Disclosure

Under federal law, you have the right, and EcoMobile has the duty, to protect the confidentiality of your CPNI. The Company is permitted to use or disclose your CPNI for certain purposes without further notice or consent, including to provide you with our Services, to protect you, other subscribers, the Company, and other carriers from fraud, abuse, or unlawful use of the Services, and in an aggregate form.

You can request access to your CPNI by calling 1-855-825-8855 or emailing support@ecomobile.com. We will not disclose your Personal Information when you call us except when you provide a password.
